[Bug 19749] Re: SATA HDD not recognized during Breezy Colony 4 install or Dapper Flight 3 or Edgy Eft or Feisty Fawn

My last install was the default (via live cd) with Hardy final and I didn't have any problems with that particular build. I'll note though that this has happened in the past - it'll look like it's fixed in a late beta or final release, and then be broken again when the next version comes around. I

Lots of bug reports with this same title and symptoms, so hopefully I'm in the right place. The error/bug report tool informs me that vbetool crashes whenever I wake from suspend. Sometimes I'm not able to wake at all and need to do a hard reset. That seems to be more frequent though when I

Well, I have some good news. :-) Hardy Heron Alpha 2 LiveCD installed just fine this time. Recently the problem hasn't been during install with the live cd, but with booting into the system after install. With Alpha 2 everything seems to work great! If possible though I'd like to hold off closing

Hedley: I could only wish. :-) Considering Canonical's investment in this laptop and my time, I really assumed it would have been flagged as critical 2+ years ago. Apparently in spite of the fact that everyone knows what's wrong, no one has been able to fix it in that amount of time. Leann: It'll

I gave the install another go tonight (with alternate install CD) and with the old installer trick with the modules I was able to get 7.10 installed. Not sure what my problem was the other night - probably a typo or something on my end. The only thing I did differently tonight was unload/reload

Still experiencing the bug with 7.10 Final. This time when I try the workaround, I get a fatal error - module in use (or similar - I can't find my USB drive right now to get you all the log files), when I try and unload ata_piix. Just reloading ahci doesn't do anything either. This is with the

Leann, I just finished downloading 7.10 and I'll try to do an install this weekend. I'm still running a little slow due to my medical problems, but I promise I WILL do it ASAP! Luckily my aforementioned homemade keyboard fix has worked on this laptop and after sitting idle for nearly a year I've

I'm still having this issue with Gutsy Tribe 2 on the Portege. Same end- user workaround seems to work - removing ata_piix and ahci and reloading them in the proper order. Is a permanent fix for this something that will break most other systems? It seems as though we've know the problem and

Ok. Attempted the install tonight. It seemed to go fine, sans the broken keyboard, and it even successfully resized the existing NTFS partition. The problems now are showing up after the install. When I rebooted, the Ubuntu logo just hung there with the progress bar at zero - even after several

I concur with Drew (although just with the live/install cd). I didn't run into any problems at all. The only reason I'd worry about closing the bug is because this has happened before - a few good builds, the a few bad builds. If the cause of the bug is known and definitely fixed though, by all

Just a quick note - you guys might want some log files to confirm I just installed Eft Knot 1 with the desktop CD and everything seemed to install fine. There was no unloading/loading/reloading of modules to get the hard disk recognized this time around. If you'd like some logs or prefer to
